More great boot camp news everyone!!


First off, I want to say thanks to all my current boot camp members! You are such a great bunch and I am so enjoying teaching you! Oh and if you have had a chance to try the Prograde Cravers ( those little dark chocolate yummy snacks) they are having a 14% off sale for Valentine’s Day, but it ends on Saturday, so get your order in NOW!

For those of you who haven’t tried them, they are Organic Dark Chocolate Prograde Cravers which have no preservatives, only 180 calories and they come in three delicious flavors: peanut butter, almond butter and spirulina. Very yummy and satisfying!


Now I want to try and get the rest of you to come and give boot camp a shot! Check out these testimonials:


“I have been taking her boot camp classes for about a month now and I have become addicted. You can go at your own and make the workout as challenging as you need it. It is a great stress reliever after a long day at work. Angie also gives nutrition advice and meal plans. This has really helped rethink about the things I eat and the fuel I am giving (or not giving to my body).” Barb Kowalski


“Although I have only been to two classes I feel that my continuing participation will lead me to better health and fitness. Angie is very personable, assists in form and has shown me the more "beginner" moves to which someday, I will graduate to the more standard moves. The workout is an intense 30 minutes. I haven't worked so hard in years. Very recommended.” Catherine Curtsinger

Our first Nutrition Class will begin on Thursday, February 26th, after boot camp class. Each member will be asked to bring a healthy snack on a designated month. I will start by bringing Prograde Cravers for everyone on the 26th. Please let me know if you will be attending, as I need to know how many handouts and snacks to bring.


I am in the process of getting a 6 or 6:15am boot camp class going on Tuesdays and Thursdays. This will be a Co-Ed Class and hope to get it up and going soon! Let me know if you are interested and I will keep you updated on when we will be starting! My plans are to have it up and going by March!

Joker Power...

This mornings boot camp was fun but tough! I set up cones to run ladders and had pile of cards at end of ladders. Each member ran the ladders and picked up their card and we went through all the exercises before doing it all over again.

Exercises were as follows:
Hearts= Squat press out
Diamonds= Tricep Dips
Spades= Forward Lunge with bicep curl
Clubs= Spiderman
Joker= DB swing

The joker was 15 repetitions and all the others were depending on the card. I only had 6-10 in the deck. We did 30 DB swings at one time and 35 Spiderman Climbs at one time. I have always liked the spiderman climb until today!

It was a kick butt workout for sure! After the cardio and strength, we did core work:

1 Leg V up
Side Plank Pulse
Bird Dog Crunch

3 sets all 12 repetitions..

Afterwards we all went for breakfast...ahh..the best part..being able to eat whatever we wanted!!
